intuition that reaches out towards what is new”.

IDEA GENERATION
“Think openly and let your imagination ruin yourself”.
Idea generation is knowledgeable, creative and systematic. It develops from
knowledge of the consumer, the market, the technology and the general environment,
and it creates newness in product, production and marketing.
HOW ARE IDEAS SHAPED?
There are number of methods by which we can get ‘big idea’:
1. Chance encounter: A creative writer, while studying the project or brief, can
suddenly get an inspiration and hit upon the idea. For example: For a beer
company, a copywriter insisted that he wanted to see the process on the shop floor.
While on the floor he saw that before the beer is filled into bottles, each bottle was
vacuum-cleaned. And he hit on this ‘big idea’. The campaign said, ‘Our bottels are
vacuum cleaned’.
IDEA SHAPING TOOLS
The company was first to exploit idea, although vacuum cleaning is the mandatory
process for all companies.
2. Competitor’s Advertising Appeal: Many times, the brand was in the marketplace
give rise to ideas that could be rejoinders to a competitor’s advertisement. For
example: Coke’s punch line
“ Coke, the official drink” was coke’s slogan for WILLS WORLD CUP cricket series in
1996; whereas Pepsi’s slogan “ Nothing official about it, Enjoy Pepsi”.
IDEA SHAPING TOOLS
3. Brainstorming :- Brainstorming is a group or individual creativity technique by
which efforts are made to find a conclusion for a specific problem by gathering a list
of ideas spontaneously contributed by its member.
• It is introduced in 1989 by Osborn, an advertising professional working in
advertising agency. The technique is now widely used by the corporate, the govt. and
armed forces.
EXAMPLE: FORMULA TOOTHPASTE
EXAMPLE: BERGER PAINT
IDEA SCREENING
It is a process which is used to evaluate innovative product ideas, strategies and
marketing trends.
Idea screening criteria are used to determine compatibility with overall business
objectives and whether the idea would offer a viable ROI.
The main objective of Idea screening is to eliminate unsound concepts prior to
devoting resources to them.
THE QUESTION TO LOOK FOR ?
Will the customer in the target market benefit from the product?
What is the size and growth forecasts of the market segment/ target market?
What are the industry sales and market trends the product idea is based on?
Is it technically feasible to manufacture the product?
Will the product be profitable at the target price?
RISK IN SCREENING
Dropping ideas too early means missed opportunities.
Developing the ‘wrong’ ideas means wasted resources, in terms of time and financial
investment, and may put the activities in your current portfolio at risk.
SCREENING OPTIONS
OPTION 1
Give the attributes an important score from 1-10 (10=most important)
Rate each idea from 1-10 (10=good score)
The ideas with the highest scores are chosen.
SCREENING OPTIONS
OPTION 2
Define outcomes and rate them for profitability and importance.
Give each idea a score on probability for the outcome, and importance if it happens.
The ideas with the highest scores are selected.
CONCLUSION
Idea generation is knowledgeable, creative and systematic. It develops from
knowledge of the consumer, the market, the technology and the general
environment, and it creates newness in product, production and marketing. It
systematically develops product ideas to satisfy the aim of the project and therefore
the business strategy.
In screening, the many ideas are reduced to smaller numbers and eventually to the
one product concept, prototype product, processing method and advertising plan.
The screening begins qualitatively and gradually develops, as more information is
obtained, to a quantitative evaluation of the predicted outcomes for the product,
production, market and finance
